In this two-semester physical chemistry course, you will study again many of the
topics that were introduced in the first two years of college chemistry as well as some
new topics. All of the topics will be approached more mathematically and more
theoretically than in earlier courses, and we will apply the techniques of physics and
mathematics as well as those studied up to now in chemistry courses. In Chemistry 311,
we will study thermodynamics and its application to chemical systems, gas kinetic theory,
and the theory of transport processes. In Chemistry 312, we will study reaction kinetics,
quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, and statistical mechanics
